![]() They are black, and both the front and the rear sights feature horizontal striations. The main difference between the EC9s and the previous LC9 is the sights are integral to the steel slide. The pistol weighs 17.2 ounces and fits in the hip pocket of my jeans just fine. The slide is 0.9 inch thick and so is the grip. In size, the EC9s is 6.0 inches long, 4.9 inches tall (with the finger-extension magazine baseplate), and 1.07 inches thick at the thumb safety. The EC9s is larger and heavier than the company’s LCP pistol, and that gives the EC9s more grasping surface and weight for better controllability when firing stout 9mm ammo. The main difference is the EC9s’s sights are integral to the carbon-steel slide. The EC9s is very similar to Ruger’s earlier single-column LC9, which was originally designed to serve either as a primary citizen-carry tool or as a full-power, full-featured, no-compromise backup for off-duty law enforcement officers. With the affordability issue out of the way, let’s take a close look at the EC9s. I think just about any serious handgunner will admit that $294 is pretty affordable, especially for a gun that’s manufactured by one of the most reliable gunmakers in the United States. I’m highlighting a version of the pistol that is exclusive to Davidson’s (I’ll get to the details of this special pistol in a few minutes), and it retails for $294. Let’s get the affordable part out of the way right off the bat. The company’s wording goes like this: “Everyday Carry, Everyday Affordable.” I tweaked it slightly. I borrowed Ruger’s company slogan for the EC9s for the headline of this report.
